Usher syndrome (USH) causes a combined deafness-blindness in humans. At least nine causative genes are known. While the analysis of USH knockout mice has shed light on the origin of the auditory deficit, the causes of vision loss are still unclear. Nevertheless, USH1B protein, myosin VIIa, appears to contribute to intracellular traffic in photoreceptor cells. To better understand the role of this myosin in the retina, I studied the functions of its interacting partner, spectrin βV. We found that spectrin V, along with USH1 proteins, participates in intracellular transport by coupling motor proteins (myosin VIIa, kinesin II, dynein/dynactin complex) to the cargoes en route towards the outer segment of photoreceptor cells. Evidence from compa...
